Question:

Would all of the hitches designed to fit an 02 F-350 have the drop? Im looking for the least amount of drop as possible.

Expert Reply:

The amount of recess and drop is really similar on all the hitches for your 2002 Ford F-350. For the least amount of drop, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 13355 or the # C14355. They both have the 2-1/2 inches from the outside of the bumper to the center of the hitch pin and the 18-1/2 inch measurement from the ground to the top of the inner receiver tube. These hitches have the least amount of ground clearance restriction.

The # C13014 is the only one I don't recommend because it is made for the Canadian models and will not allow for the 20 inch spare tire.
